So both my parents were taking classes at Tri-C in Cleveland. My mom had been going there for a minute and my dad transferred there to take some classes because he hated going to school at Iowa state.

So my mom was in this speech class sitting next to her girls when my dad walks in and sees her and he’s like

My mom sees him and is like

So my dad goes in and sits down in the class and tries to talk to my mom... my mom is blowing him off because she’s trying to learn and he’s just bugging her right...

Come to find out at the end of class my dad was in the wrong class the whole time and didn’t need to be there

Anyways my dad keeps coming back to the class to talk to her even though he’s not enrolled (like he never enrolls in the class) and decides to sit right next to my mom everyday until she gives him attention

So now my moms like ok let me see what this man’s about since he’s trying so hard to get her attention

My dad gets all excited and starts telling her and all their friends he’s going to make her his wife one day and that she’s the one

And my moms like sir you can’t even remember my name

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Gesicht mit Freudentränen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Freudentränen"> but I live for it

But anyways my dad kept pushing and eventually my mom gave in and he asked her out on a date. She said yes and knowing she loved music he got her tickets to go see her favorite group Earth Wind and Fire. So now my moms like

They had a great time until my dad got a scholarship to go play football for USC and he’d have to leave Cleveland for LA. My dads like damn I just got this girl and now this

He wasn’t about to lose her though so despite them barely knowing each other and him having only a scholarship and a dream to his name he asked my mom to take a chance on him and move to California...

My moms like I like you but do I like you like you

So boom she goes to her sister and she’s like Linda I think I’m in love with this man and I want to go to California with him what do I do?

And my Aunts basically like if you love him I’ll buy you a round trip ticket. If it doesn’t work out come home but if it does cash it and get some money

So now my moms like bet and my aunt buys her a ticket for tomorrow. The only thing is she hasn’t told her parents and decides to just spring it on them at dinner

They’re all basically sitting at the dinner table. My mom, her sister, both her brothers, and her cousin when my mom is all I’m leaving for California tomorrow. Now everyone is just looking at her like wtf

Despite them not being supportive she goes anyways and they move in together. They throw massive parties all the time and her and my dad are known as having the spot.

Anyways one day my dad proposes (I don’t know the story) and my mom says yes but she says they have to wait some years because he’s not ready to be a husband. My dad is irritated but he agrees and is all

Years pass. Short breakups happen where my dad basically boom box outside the windows her to death until she takes him back happens

And it’s finally almost time. They’ve been planning a wedding. My mom is visibly stressed. They’re getting ready to drive back to Cleveland for Christmas. When my dad says “Hey Laverne let’s get married”

So boom my parents get married on Christmas Day at a courthouse around the corner from where they live in LA and my mom had never been happier

Fast forward they had my brother Jeffrey a few years later on Easter and Geoffrey 11 months and 2 weeks after. This is one of the baby shower photos

My dad passed away December 9, 2019 from Covid-19. 3 minutes before he died he looked at my mom and she said “it’s ok Jeff I forgive you for all that you’ve done wrong and I’m sorry for everything I’ve done. You don’t have to hurry anymore.” My dad died at 2:52 pm.
